Details
The instrument features a range of articulations, including sustains, palm mutes, and natural harmonics, alongside special effects like string slaps and muted strums. Each articulation is recorded with three dynamic layers and four round-robins, ensuring a nuanced performance. The library is built on the Evolution engine, which offers a strumming pattern editor and automatic chord detection, enhancing playability and workflow.
Recording was done at Rosewood Recording Company, utilising analog equipment to highlight the guitar's rich tonal characteristics. The library includes both the raw and enhanced signals, allowing for flexibility in mixing. Additionally, the adjustable pick position and powerful mapping system enable detailed control over articulation selection, accommodating various performance styles and preferences.
